Martin D. Jay, 25, told police he went to Amit's home to look for a pickup truck for MD Recovery. Amit became upset with Jay, following him back to his truck and damaging a side mirror. Amit then went to get an ax and again approached Jay before police arrived.

Officers ordered Jay out his truck at gunpoint when they arrived on the scene. Police also ordered Amit and Amit's son to the ground at gunpoint before taking Amit into custody.
